のが好き・のが嫌い

About

This structure combines the nominalizer の with the が particle and the な-adjectives 好すき and 嫌きらい to describe a verb or adjective as being "liked" or "disliked".

Since it uses the nominalizing の, this structure can follow a verb or adjective, but not a noun. Don't forget that な-adjectives require な attached in order to be nominalized by の (e.g. 「静しずかなのが好すき。」"I like quiet.").

好すき and 嫌きらい can be combined with 大だい to form 大好だいすき ("love") and 大嫌だいきらい ("hate"). The rest of the structure remains the same.
